Bab 308: Masks

When Lishi Xieren's break was over, the old steward Dong Chun took over in watching Murong Xiao Dan while Lishi Xieren went back to the courtyard where Wang Ya and the others were.

Murong Xiu noticed her mother's listlessness.

The other keeps looking back to the way of their assigned courtyard.

Murong Xiu leaned towards her and whispered. "Mother, is something the matter?"

The latter was startled for a moment. Then upon realizing that it was only his daughter who spoke, she shook her head. "Nothing's wrong. It's just–your brother, I felt his hand move slightly."

Murong Xiu gasped as her eyes widened. She was speechless for a moment.

"Is it true? Did he really move? Is he awake now?" She asked excitedly, her voice no longer a whisper.

It attracted the attention of some of the women.

Lishi Xieren realized that they've caused a disturbance.

"Sorry.. Sorry.. My daughter got too excited."
